Mute all option

Can anyone tell me if there is an option to mute all without having to reduce the volume down? I am aware of the profiles but even when I put the phone on silent or vibrate only, when I play games the volume is still on. It is a little frustrating having to keep moving the volume up and down. Wished the middle button can be configured to mute like the PlayBook

Put the phone on silent, and when you're on the home screen or any app, press volume down a few times until the bell symbol with a cross through it comes up. I don't see how this is different than any other platform. My previous Android functioned exactly the same way.

On the iPhone you just switch the toggle and all volume is off. Again when I put it on silent why should we have to press the volume several times. That defeats the purpose of getting things done faster.

I have an iPhone, so please don't pass off your Kies as facts. In the iPhone, if you flip the switch 1) it goes to vibrate, and 2) it does not silence everything. That volume control is separate. You could have the button on the red side, and you go to play music, it will play the sound unless you put that bar all the way down.

I too had an iPhone and yes it goes to vibrate when you flick the switch, but games and apps do go on silence when it is in this mode. Maybe not with music, but all my other apps/games would be off. As for pressing the middle button, it only invokes the voice command. I wish I could customize the buttons.
